UML25 — What is “Intentionally Not specified”?

  • Key: UML25-317
  • Legacy Issue Number: 17898
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Soluta.net ( Adriano Comai)
  • Summary:

    current text: “The precise lifecycle semantics of composite aggregation is intentionally not specified.” (and two following sentences)

    [AC] Is it explained somewhere in the spec what is the meaning of the “intentionally not specified” expression? Not by bad intentions, I suppose, but the reader may wonder why.
